Summer of music from
garage to young guns
By STEPHEN FORBES
New sounds: Singer-songwriter Victoria Girling-Butcher has just released a new album and will be
performing at the Titirangi Theatre on March 31 as part of this year's festival line-up.
Rock'n'roll: Rock band Luger Boa is one of the acts which will be
performing at the 2012 Titirangi Festival of Music which starts on
March 28.
The 2012 Titirangi Festival of
Music looks set to feature a
line-up of bands and artists
from across the musical spec-
trum.
The annual event will kick
off with the Young Guns con-
cert at Henderson's Zeal Cafe
on March 28 which will
include young bands and
songwriters from various
west Auckland secondary
schools.
Festival director David
Parker says the best per-
formers will be chosen to per-
form at other concerts during
the festival including one at
the Titirangi War Memorial
Hall on March 30 with Luger
Boa and Clap Clap Riot.
We will choose a young
west Auckland band from the
Young Guns Concert to play
as part of that line-up.''
Other interesting acts this
year include self-described
robot garage band The Trons.
The Hamilton group is
made up of junk and discar-
ded electronics and is con-
trolled by a 15-year-old com-
puter salvaged from a
vending machine.
They will be performing at
the Titirangi Theatre on
April 1.
The Nudge from Welling-
ton will perform at the
Titirangi RSA on March 29
while former Lucid 3 front-
woman Victoria Girling-
Butcher performs at the
Titirangi Theatre on March
31.There'll be something for
the whole family on April 1
with a family day out
featuring everything from
drumming and ukulele
demonstrations to storyteller
Tania Batt.
Mr Parker's own group The
Nukes will also take the
stage in the West of the Bor-
der concert with the Paul
Symons Band at the Titirangi
RSA on March 30.
